Class: ActiveRecord::Encryption::Cipher::Aes256Gcm

Relationships & Source Files
Inherits: Object
Defined in: activerecord/lib/active_record/encryption/cipher/aes256_gcm.rb

Overview

A 256-GCM cipher.

By default it will use random initialization vectors. For deterministic encryption, it will use a SHA-256 hash of the text to encrypt and the secret.

See ::ActiveRecord::Encryption::Encryptor

.new(secret, deterministic: false) ⇒ Aes256Gcm

When iv not provided, it will generate a random iv on each encryption operation (default and recommended operation)
